GPU hardware acceleration has nothing to do with video decode. (Okay, the hardware is often on the same physical silicon die, but they're separate things in software.)
There is literally no support yet for any unix video decode APIs in Firefox. No VA-API, no VDPAU, no V4L2, no nothing.
Here's the bug for VAAPI: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1210727 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1210727
There's a bounty for it: https://www.bountysource.com/issues/55506502-add-va-api-hardware-decoding-support-on-linux https://www.bountysource.com/issues/55506502-add-va-api-hard...
